Understanding Aortic Stenosis
Aortic stenosis is a condition where the aortic valve, which controls blood flow from your heart to the rest of your body, becomes narrow and stiff. This makes it harder for your heart to pump blood effectively. Imagine trying to water your garden with a kinked hose - that's similar to what's happening in your heart with aortic stenosis.
Impact on Life Expectancy
Without treatment, severe aortic stenosis can significantly shorten your life. Once symptoms develop - things like shortness of breath, chest pain, or fainting - the average survival is only about 2-3 years if left untreated. That's why it's crucial to address this condition promptly.
The good news is that with proper treatment, we can dramatically improve these numbers. In fact, successful treatment of aortic stenosis can often restore your life expectancy to nearly normal for your age.
Treatment Options
We have several ways to treat aortic stenosis, and choosing the right one depends on your individual situation. The main options we'll discuss are:
Traditional open-heart surgery
Minimally invasive "keyhole" surgery
TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation)
